Dr. Joe Ostheller, DDS
The Kitsap area holds a special place in my heart. I grew up mainly in Poulsbo, and graduated from North Kitsap High school. Then, I went to BYU in Provo, Utah, and served a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Northern England. I graduduated with a degree in Behavioral science and health from the University of Utah in 1994, and in 1999 I graduated with my DDS degree from Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I have passed both the WREB board and the ADEX board in proving my dental knowledge and skills.
After dental school, I came home with my young family to the pacific northwest and began private practice in Port Orchard. I also opened a practice in Gig Harbor, and now have sold both of those practices and practice only in Silverdale.
After starting into practice, I completed the Orthodontic success program under John Witzig DDS. I really enjoyed learning about teeth movement, jaw development, TMJ, and sleep apnea.I find it very rewarding to help people who have a chronic jaw problem and can find a positive quality of life improvement from the application of my knowledge and skills in this area. I enjoy many areas of dentistry. Root canals, crowns, fillings, dentures, and oral appliances.
My passion in dentistry is seeing great results, and happy patients. My wife, Renee and I, like the Aloha spirit of caring and friendship that people experience while on vacation to Hawaii, so, we decided to change the name of my practice to “Aloha dental”. It reminds us every day to work gently and live Aloha.
Warm regards,
Joseph L Ostheller, DDS
